While tracing sua messaging, intermittent wirewshark crashes occur in
dissect_bssapp.  A cursory look at the core files in gdb reveals an invalid
sccp_info pointer.  This happens frequently on our system, however, no method
for reproducing the problem has been identified.

I have multiple core files that all point to the same problem.  Unfortunately,
they are all 40+MB in size.  So, we may need to discuss an alternative means of
adding those files to the bug report.
